OpenSUSE board non-confidence effort fails

The openSUSE board troubles that LWN reportedon in March have continued to simmer, and the promised election for anempty seat has not yet been held. During this time, instead, the project hasvoted on a petition to declare a lack of confidence in the board as awhole, a result that would have forced the election of an entirely newboard. In the end, the number of votes fell far short of the numberrequired, and the existing board will move forward with the election plan.
